Finding a Doctor who treats conditions and not symptoms

Post a new topicby john247 on Mon Aug 03, 2009 9:33 am

I have seen two urologists and my PCP for Erectile Dysfunction Each has ordered labwork or used that provided by my PCP. I have had a digital exam at the base of my penis and one prostate exam. When I asked what was causing the problem, I was baiscally given the response that they were not sure as everything seemed in order. When I asked if more tests could be performed to get a difinitive answer, I was basically informed that they preferred not to do them because treatments (Levitra, Cialis, or Viagra) would be the same either way.

How do you get the doctors to dig a little deeper and find the cause and treat the cause?

Can anyone suggest a doctor in Jacksonville FL or a website to locate doctors who get more specific?
